Select the specific RNC whose snapshot is to be created and double click on it to display Resource browser Resource browser has all the NodeBs in that specific RNC along with the RNC displayed as icons Right click on the RNC icon and and select configuration, cmXML, Export NE Do a similar selection on any other RNCs that are to be added along with the current.

CMXML Export window is displayed showing only the specific selected RNCs Select all the RNCs that needed for the snapshot and select compressed, provisioning and customer options Name the snapshot that is to be exported and click on export now

Wms exports the snapshot in .xcm format How to Import the snapshot in Wips :
Click file and select import and export Select import snapshotand click on next Select replace initial snapshot and discard existing workorders and click next

Browse to select the specific .xcm snapshot that was exported from wms Select edit filter options in order to import only specific parameters

Select the specific RNCs that are worked on as shown

All the selected RNCs are loaded into wips for reference. FDDcell, UMTS neighborcells, GSM neighbors, UMTS remoteFDDs, RNC etc tables Can be exported into the computer in .html formats from here.

Create the input with all required columns defined in an excel spreadsheet

Select all the data in the sheet to be executed and copy it to the clipboard

Before creating the work order, make sure to import the snapshot ,into wips ,of all the RNCs involved Select the specific location for which the work order is to be created This Case is for UMTS NL, so umts neighboringcell is selected. Select Edition tab and display it by type. Right click on any of the cell in the current selection and click on create/update instances using clipboard Go to work orders tab to see a new work order being created. Network changes that are going to be made and their number will be shown . Select the current work order and name it and click apply

Right click on the newly named work order and export it to the local file system for execution as shown Select a name for the output file and save A duo of the current work order and its reverse will be saved in the chosen location as .xwo file

The exported work order is to be transferred on to the server at the cmXML location. Connect to filezilla again and transfer the work order duo to the server at the same location /opt/nortel/data/cmCML

Executing the work order in wms: Click on configuration and select sessions manager In the sessions manager window select create new session Name the session for easy identification Select the work order that was transferred and is ready for execution Select next

Once the work order is imported into wms, creation parameters window will be open This shows the actions to be performed following the current work order Once the analysis is completed click launch Creation for the new session with status update and summary window appears

Make sure the summary tab shows validate result error free Any errors in the work order creation will be shown at this stage as a red cross mark in the validate result column Final Step is to activate the session for launching the changes into the network. Click on activation and click launch Check the status and once its complete do not forget to release the session

Select the network layout and the specific RNC where the site belongs to Double click on the RNC for the Resource browser to be displayed Right click on the site which shows the alarm to know the alarm details on that specific site Right click on the RNC and select show alarms to see all the alarms in that specific RNC Alarm manager window that is displayed shows the alarms related to all the node Bs Select a specific alarm to see the details like its code, specific problem, components, location of the node B, severity of the alarm etc

Locking and unlocking the site/FDD cell

Open resource browser in wms and go to the specific node B that is to be locked or unlocked. Talk about selecting fdd cell after adding another snapshot

Right click on the nobe B and select configuration. Go to set administrative state option for the set administrative state action window to be opened. Select the displayed node B or the FDD cell which needs to be locked/or unlocked and click on the respective button at the bottom

Equipment monitor ( RNC) : Right click on the nobe B or the RNC icon in the Resource browser and select Equipment Monitor RNCs Equipment montor window can be seen below. It gives details like the current RNC software version, Cluster ID, iub attach port number, RNC ID, complete general as well as dynamic data

Equipment monitor ( NodeB) :

Right click on the nodeB instead of the RNC in the resource browser for displaying the one BTS Equipment for that specific NodeB. Click on the node B to check its corresponding FDD cells General details for the nodeB are displayed like the frame size, controlling radio information, Latitude and longitude, power utilization, number of sectors, expected and detected Tx amplifier model number, slot number, inventory type , NodeB ip address and subnet mask etc

Object editor: Right click on RNC/ Node B in the resource browser and select Object Editor for the window Select the specific FDD cell which is to be edited Look for the attributes that are displayed and select for editing We can display those attributes that were recently changed or simply display everything Attributes like cellId, OCNSload status, can be changed or reset in the details tab as shown At all times, we need to be alert as any change made to it would affect the live node B that is currently on air and is taking traffic

Radios
Select FDD cell and click on radio/ 1 Each FDD cell has a radio number , which starts with 1 usually and are assigned in ascending order as we add sectors / carriers on the node B Check the radio details displayed in the bottom of the screen as we click on the specific radio

Radios
Right click on each of the radio to diagnose if there are any issues or check the complete configuration in the object editor or lock and unlock the FDD cell corresponding to that radio or even to RESET the radio

Open PuTTY connection manager Select the RNC to which your site belongs Log in using the username and password See screenshot to know how the output looks like

Give the command : /home/Support/monitor/pmv/pmv6 The list of RNCs under the connected group are displayed. You will be prompted to enter the line number or the RNC Enter the number of your RNC in the list displayed above Information about the version of the RNC and the location from where the RNC is being read is displayed Enter the command ds 6 This will start reading the RNC and will show us the intervals in which it is reading the values

Enter the final command that will extract the KPIs from the selected node B
tr nodeb SITENAME kpi 11c 13c 14c 16c 33c 35c This will display the KPI values of the site that we requested for ( in this example site name was MOU1056)

KPI 11: CS dropped call rate KPI 13: PS dropped call rate KPI 14 CS call success rate KPI 16: PS call success rate KPI 33: Successful PS RAB Assignment Rate KPI 35: Successful RRC Connection Set Up Rate
